<br />A tra/!!,c signal is already plannedfor the intersection of 14dh Street and TH 61. If <br />142" Street or 147lh Street were chosen there would be a need for more traffic signals. That <br />many traffic signals within that short a distance will cause more traffic issues. <br /> <br />The 140lh Street alignment offers the most flexibility for future growth and expansion when <br />dealing with traffic issues. <br /> <br />Prefer that homes rather than businesses be impacted on 14dh Street. <br /> <br />This alignment may encourage more commercial business to move in along Fenway Avenue. <br /> <br />. 142nd Street Alignment: <br /> <br />The alignment would create less wetland, floodplain and right-orway impacts than the other <br />alignment alternatives. <br /> <br />. 14S'h Street Alignment (existing location): <br /> <br />The alignment impacts the affordable housing at the intersection ofCSAH 8 and TH 61. <br /> <br />Can the houses on the south side ofCSAH 8 near the intersection with TH 61 be relocated to <br />the south on their lots? <br /> <br />Residents along CSAH 8 near the intersection with TH 61 experience difficulty accessing the <br />roadway due to heavy traffic volumes. <br /> <br />If this route is chosen, homes along existing CSAH 8 would need to be bought, and there is a <br />concern about finding comparable housing. <br /> <br />Choose this alternative, eliminate my house and relocate me. <br /> <br />Take out both sides of houses on 145lh Street and keep the same route. <br /> <br />If 1451h Street is chosen, the City could acquire both sides. More commercial land is <br />available, which is value/investment to the City. <br /> <br />I don't want to live in a "fishbowl" that increased traffic would create. <br /> <br />Excessive noise is an issue due to heavy truck traffic. <br /> <br />Select one of the other alignment alternatives and construct a cul-de-sac on 145lh Street. <br /> <br />This alignment would affect the entire neighborhood. <br /> <br />There will be access issues and the road curvature needs to be fixed if this alignment is <br />chosen. . <br /> <br />The improvements should stay on 145lh Street because the wetlands would be disturbed on <br />1401h Street. <br /> <br />CSAH 8/14 COMMENTS AND RESPONSES - Updated July 2002 <br /> <br />- 2- <br />
